Hello friends and welcome to another fantastic month with the Color Fusers! We are so happy you returning again or finding us for the first time!

Our color combination for this month is Pool Party, Pretty Peacock and Bubble Bath and I have to say—they look fantastic together!

I decided to make a card this month and I was inspired to use the new Bold Bouquet Bundle from the Annual Catalogue. I started with a base and first layer of Pool Party card stock for my design.

Along the left edge I stamped four of the large blooms in Pool Party ink and then went over them with a Blending Brush and Pool Party ink, just to add another layer of depth. I also took my dark Pool Party Blend and flicked that all over the front.

I cut a rectangular shape from the Nested Essentials dies and stamped the sentiment in Bubble Bath on top. I then stamped it again on some scrap Basic White in Pretty Peacock and trimmed out the word ‘blessing’. I added it overtop of the main sentiment with a Mini Dimensional. This is such a an easy way to highlight a part of a sentiment that you want o shine.

Underneath the sentiment I added a length of Bubble Bath ribbon from the 3/8 Sheer Ribbon Combo Pack and tied it with some white Bakers Twine. A couple little Pretty Peacock banners cut from the Glorious Gingham DSP is the perfect finishing touch.

The Bold Bouquet Bundle includes these 3 amazing sprig dies that I cut and trimmed the stems down to add behind the sentiment panel. A few Pretty Peacock sequins from the Adhesive-Backed Sequins Trio completed this project.

I hope you are inspired after touring through our Hop to create your own project with this awesome color combo of Pool Party, Pretty Peacock and Bubble Bath!

2023/2025 NEW IN COLORS

2023/2025 NEW IN COLORS 〰️

Who doesn’t love new COLORS? I know I do and all of the new color potential they unlock. I love how this collection has a neutral earthy vibe. Definitely different than others we have seen before.

Each year when we have this release of new colors, I also try and create at least one or two projects that feature all five of the colors working together to make with my card making groups. This is a great way for them to get a sample or little taste of the five colors.

I started with a base of Basic White so that they new colors would have a nice crisp platform. My first layer has a die cut banner cut out featuring a new set of dies called the Nested Essentials Dies. I have been using them so much, they are definitely a craft room MUST HAVE. Make sure to put them at the top of your wish list!

Behind the die cut banner I added strips of the 5 colors in this order:

Boho Blue
Wild Wheat
Misty Mauve (which in Canada rhymes with stove)
Copper Clay
Pebbled Path

For my design element I used the stamp set Sending Smiles and some of the new In Color Dots as an embellishment.

I stamped out “Sending” in Boho Blue and used the coordinating Sending Dies to cut it out. I layered that on some vellum that I hand cut around just for some added dimension. This is then popped up with Mini Dimensionals and centered through the die cut banner.

“A Card to Say Hello” is stamped in Moody Mauve and added slightly offset below. What I love about this bundle is the mix of sentiments and the flowers and greenery you can use to embellish your project.

I stamped out the flowers in a mix of the colors with the exception of Pebbled Path. Instead to bring life to that color I added two of the coordinating In Color Dots to that strip of card stock.

I love how this card turned out and I think these five colors look absolutely fantastic together. I can’t even pick a favorite at the moment! You can also head to my Instagram @stampwithbrenda to see another card that I created with these colors. However, I know you will be inspired by what the rest of the Color Fusers Design Team has created this month. Make sure to hop all the way through and if I have inspired you in a anyway, please consider shopping with me so I can continue to love what I do!

Next up on the Hop is Bonnie O’Neill from the US…go give her all the love!

If you want to shake it up and go in reverse (or if the Hop is ever broken) you can go Previous to see what my friend Melanie Hockin (also from the US) has designed. And in case you didn’t know, I am sharing from Edmonton, Alberta Canada (GO OILERS)!
